IT DRIVES OUT WORMS
The surest sign of worms in children is
paleness, lack of interest in play, fretful
ness, variable appetite, picking at the
nose and sudden starting in sleep. When
these symptoms appear it is time to give
White’s Cream Vermifuge. A few doses
drives out the worms and puts the little
one on the road to health again. White’s
Cream Vermifuge has a record of fifty
years of successful use. Price3sc. Sold by

daubed with a liquid poison mix
ture. Both stalks were thoroughly
enclosed to prevent escape of the
weevils, and a close watch was kept
upon the insects after this had been
done.
Within four hours, the weevils
placed upon the stalk treated with
the liquid mixture showed effects
of the poison. Two of these were
“down,” with one of them apparent
ly dead. The other two clung ten
aciously to the cotton, but appeared
increasingly inactive and feeble.
The weevils placed upon the
stalks treated with dry calcium ar
senate were a little longer show
ing the effects of the poison, but
.all of these had collapsed and died
within six hours, or approximately
the same time required to kill the
weevils placed on the liquid-treated
stalk.
The weevils placed on both stalks
died alike within a six-hour period,
when all were found dead upon the
ground beside the plant. The result
of the experiment, it was concluded,
demonstrates conclusively the ef
fectiveness of both methods of ap
plying the poison thoroughly with
whatever method be used.

which the state of Georgia is the
recipient of $50,000 from tne
Rockefeller Foundation for educa

a more formal written statement
before Attorney General George
H. Napier will rule on the legality
of the request of M. E. Ballard,

for the resignation of W. B. Hill,

This, in effect, is the ultimatum

Since the controversy came up, it
